10 posts barrier - mod attention

hi all, I am new to xda, I've registrered few minutes ago but I'm noot a supernoob. maybe only a little noob if everyone who wants to ask some questions on modded tab is considered as this.
so now i must reply to 10 posts which i'm not interested at all to be able to reply to the only one i need? (i'm running new cm 7.1.0 - 2.3.7, fully functional) on my galaxy tab and want to make some questions, even surfing over 200 pages of a thread searching for an answer has been very very hard).
thanks for your help
russel51

So whats your question?

yes, what is your question?

And don't waste time using the xda search. Use google.

the question seems very clear to me:
"so now i must reply to 10 posts which i'm not interested at all to be able to reply to the only one i need?"
now the count il 2...

It wasn't clear to us.
Its not 10 seperate posts, its ten replies anywhere. They all count

i understand, but i'm not interested in anything else than the topic about cm7 on gtab at this time. i must reply 7 more times to 7 different topics saying "hi all" to the users and hope not to be banned?

Alright, but ya had a cm7 sgt7 developer basically begging you to ask your question.
too bad, hope you get to ask your question and get it answered eventually.
Good luck!

man, i misunderstand you: i think that you was referring to the question in my first topic and you can't understand it, i'm sorry.
it's not properly a question, i try to resume all (many of it can be included to the main post about the cm7 port on gt7 to prevent a lot of questions contained in the 200+ pages).
i was coming from latest firmware EURO release of android for gt7 2.3.3 on samfirmware (JQM) with CF-ROOT kernel 3.3 and CWM (3.2? - not important).
i tried first to flash via recovery the .zip, no luck, freeze on boot animation (samsung galaxy tab); as said in the topic even if freezed new cwm is however installed.
i've tried a couple of times to flash with the new recovery with no luck (same issue).
so let's go with heimdall (first option, no repartition - the benefit of flash with repartition is not really cleared to me as i read in the post, can you explain it?)
all good, cyano boot, i've done the 2 wipes and a software reset from the android options, followed the wizard and get my system back fully funcional with clean cm7.
as said in the topic with heimdall version i have market already installed, tried all the options to install all the programs i need and the only one working correctly is the oldmarket.apk found here on xda.
other gapps didn't install from recovery (many tries, many wipes )
so now i have all like my old official 2.3.3 but very, very, very, very, very faster and with best dpi. good work and thanks to all the team made it possible.
so, here is what is not going ok:
1) video playback - i can see all my old videos and divx in the icon preview in file manager and in the gallery. when i try to open it, audio goes ok, but video is full green (same green of initial "audience" page of movie trailers).
the same thing happens to any other video i try to play: youtube app, browser,...
this thing happens on 1 reboot on 3, the other 2 times all is ok.
2) video recording - video recording is possible, using videocam illusion app setted to 800x600 capture resolution. video is not the best of the best, but it's working. videos are in the folder "videocamillusion", mov format.
even with lgcamera you can set the options to capture a movie (with better quality than videocam illusion), but the app fail to stop the recording and crash.
(
if can be helpful or someone is interested this is the data of an original video file made with tab 2.3.3 from samsung:

3) GPS: using sygic (11.2.0). with the stock rom the gps fix was almost instantaneous (10-15 seconds). now i can get a good gps signal only after 5-7 minutes, before that there are 5-6-7 satellites locked, but with poor signal.
maybe you can add even a short line to the first topic, sort of:
"download heimdall for your platform, extract it, place in the same folder the extracted heimdall rom, navigate with cmd to the heimdall folder and run the command:..."
this will prevent many questions and will save a lot of time to the first time heimdall's users.
so, thanks for your work, for your help and for your patience, i hope to help the development of this beautiful rom giving feedback.

Thanks @cajl for good news !

This update doesn't make sense... why update an OS that you as a developer are going to replace with ICS in the next few days anyway ?
Or maybe it is because they can't keep their promise of bringing ICS to our devices in the first week of February...

i just hope they won't delay the ICS update for G9 tablets.

-ICS is still quite new, there may be some apps that are not compatible- in business use for example
-if Google want's to check ICS build first (G8 is Google certified) it will take some time especially that G9 system structure is different than on other devices
-it is really nice IMHO to see that maker takes so much care about product, none of my other Android devices had so often released updates (mainly updates were for new Android version, eg. 2.1->2.2)

I agree that it is nice that Archos Devices get these frequent updates, I just think that their attention at this point should be focused on getting ICS out to the customers.
No disrespect or anything was intended towards Archos in any way.

Ils sont trop bien Archos
There are so good Archos!!!! Thank you for the reactivity!

I think we may still see ICS very soon, because since Archos promised it in the first week of Feb, they'd probably make some sort of statement if that wasn't going to happen. As for this update, I agree with fact that it was in considation for those that can't use ICS for app requimeht reasons, like businesses.
Sent from my ARCHOS 80G9 using Tapatalk

it would be nice if Archos responded to the question about where ICS is that I posted on their Facebook Site... but the question got removed as soon as I posted it.

I have to say that my g9 80 has been a lot less stable on 3.2.80, I've had many browser crashes (stock browser and opera) and flash playback is very buggy, it either crashes the browser or video locks up but the sound keeps playing.
Roll on the next firmware!

I can run them ( Dead Space, Mass Effect Infiltrator ) on my emmc install of Android 4.3 CM 10.2 09/02. I purchased a program called Resolution Changer from the Google Play Store ( there is a free version that may work ), and as I thought the 'server error 5002' goes away if you lower the resolution of the HD+ to 1280x800 ( or I suppose less ) @ 160 dpi.
Once the server files are loaded, you can run the programs at 1920x1280 like anything else. I also got Asphalt 6 to work that way. I also edited my build.prop to pretend to be a Samsung GT-I9250, which got BackStab to work.

I can also confirm that this works but if you are on CarbonRom a build.prop edit is also required. need to change the model and device to what the CM10.1 1.3 stable says.
Sorry, as soon as I get around to doing it I can post the exact details.

Fixing video streaming

Alright. So I'm sure that at least some of you people out there can't watch Netflix twitch.tv etc. And what makes me unsure is that there hasn't been a thread on this so here we go.
I've been trying to fix video streaming on cm10, miui, aokp etc. But i haven't found anything that works as of yet. In hoping that someone here knows how to fix this or can collaborate with me in finding a way to fix this!
Thanks for reading, and any help would be greatly appreciated

It could be down to something like gralloc? That's what renders onscreen, isn't the Desire C source code hacked to make this even remotely work? Have you looked at a logcat when it tries to play bro?
if you can attach one to your next post, so I can take a look, as I'm away from my Desire C as of now.

Yah, I'll give logcat soon, you will have to figure it out though as I don't really know what to look for in a logcat...

Was a fix found for video streaming?

It needs to be fixed. Streams not watchable on our phones.
It will be great if you guys fix the bug.

I know this is older but I'd also like to see it fixed. It seems the decoder is incompatible.
Code:
I/ESQueue ( 119): found AAC codec config (48000 Hz, 2 channels)
I/avc_utils( 119): found AVC codec config (1280 x 720, Baseline-profile level 3.1)

E/ACodec ( 119): [OMX.qcom.video.decoder.avc] configureCodec returning error -1010
E/NuPlayer( 119): Received error from video decoder, aborting playback.
E/NuPlayer( 119): video track encountered an error (-2147483648)

E/MediaPlayer(22126): Error (1,-2147483648)
D/Twitch (22126): Error during playback: 1, -2147483648
I believe that's an issue with the twitch app.
Edit: Another logcat error which seems related:

Few Fixes for minor bugs in ROM`s for S advance users.

Hi , all i wanted to share a few apps/workarounds for troubleshooting a bug or two
A : the VIDEO RECORDING bug in old LP rom or the latest CM13 build marshmallow rom ..
For this over the year i used the app VIVA VIDEO - editor it works like a charm no lags whatsoever .
If it is not working u might want to use its premium version, easily available free just google it :cyclops:
B : SCREEN CAST / CAST SCREEN / ALLSHARE is not working when trying to connect the phone to outer video source ie. smart tv or android tv
For this i have tried a lot of apps old and new but last week one app clicked just the right thing in my phone i used app by cm`s ex dev Koushik dutta also the owner of ClockworkMod franchise its called ALL CAST i was able to wireless stream my videos onto my smart tv .[samsung] Worked just fine.
If it is not working u might want to ue its premium version, easily available free just google it :cyclops:
C : LOW HEADPHONE/EARPHONE VOLUME during MUSIC PLAY/ CALLS HANDLING ,
For this i had found that there was a significant increase in headphone volume once i flashed THE HBBT tweaks.which is here on xda forum for about some time now , its also goo dfor battery and performance
If you have found any of these helpful don`t be shy to click that small THANKS button on screen :good: ..
Happy androiding
